Article Synopsis
- Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a significant cause of disability in young adults, leading to inflammation and damage in the brain and spinal cord.
- A study aimed to analyze white matter damage in Brazilian MS patients using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and tract-based spatial statistics (TBSS) techniques.
- Results indicated that MS patients showed worse white matter integrity compared to controls, especially after the first 5 years of the disease, suggesting early treatment could help mitigate long-term disability.
Multiple Sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory demyelinating disease that affects 2.5 million people in the world. NEDA (No evidence of disease Activity) -4 is a new concept related to absence of disease activity in the context of MS.
